The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber

At the end of May, various localities reported the situation of drug seizures in the past six months, and a total of more than [-] catties of drugs were seized.

The prohibition of drugs has been understood and supported by local officials and common people in Dazhou.

The distribution details of the disaster relief funds announced in the third issue of "Da Zhou Chao Wen" have also been widely praised by the common people.Everyone praised and sighed for the wisdom and wisdom of the pilgrim, who is an emperor through the ages.

After the emperor got feedback from these places, he happily closed his mouth from ear to ear. "One emperor through the ages", he likes this title very much.

The emperor laughed loudly in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Hearing the courtiers who participated in the report continued to praise him, his heart was joyful, and his whole body was a little floating.As a king, he cares most about the well-being of the people, and today all the people in the world praise him as a wise and wise king, which makes him happier than Fanbang's submission of tribute to gold and silver mountains.

The emperor immediately thought of Jia Amnesty, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen him in the past few days, so he asked someone else.

Prime Minister Wu hurriedly informed the emperor that Jia Amnesty had taken leave due to illness and was recuperating at home.

The emperor hurriedly asked Prime Minister Jia She how his condition was.

"It is said that he has a strange disease, he has a headache and goes mad, and he has no manners at all, so he doesn't let the old officials visit him." Prime Minister Wu replied honestly.

The emperor lamented how the She could suddenly get such a disease, and then felt that Song Xi should know about it, and asked about Song Xi's whereabouts.

"At this moment, others should be dealing with government affairs in the Hall of Martial Arts." The eunuch replied.

When the emperor heard that Song Xi was able to sit safely in the Hall of Martial Arts and not care about Jia She, he felt that it was very abnormal, and then he wondered if Jia She was going to investigate another case.

The emperor announced that Song Xi would see him.

Before Song Xi arrived, he had already learned that the emperor had asked about Jia Amnesty.He naturally understood the purpose of the emperor's summoning him this time, so after entering the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he had to explain it to the emperor.

The emperor didn't say anything, stood up, and told Song Xi to change quickly, because he was going out of the palace.

Only then did Song Xi look up at the emperor, who was wearing a half-worn green robe, the fabric of which was still very ordinary.I really don't know where the emperor got this thing, it's hard to find in the palace.

Song Xizhuan immediately sent his entourage to prepare an old clothes for himself, and then accompanied the emperor out of the palace.

The emperor kept a low profile and kept it simple, choosing to take Song Xi's carriage directly out of the palace, and then the two of them drove straight to Rongfu.

Song Xi frowned when he heard that the emperor was going to Rong Mansion when he was sitting in the car.Just as he was about to speak again, the emperor immediately stretched out his hand to stop Song Xi from opening his mouth.

"You are not allowed to speak. I know that once you open your mouth, you will definitely have to persuade me not to go to Rongfu rashly. But I want to go today, and I want to see how the 'sick' Jia Aiqing is doing. You are not allowed to dissuade me."

Song Xi said yes, so he didn't speak again.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of Rongguo Mansion, the young man of Rong Mansion opened the gate with ease, and before Song Xi could get off the carriage, the young man greeted him with a smile and greeted Song Xi.

Before the emperor got out of the car, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Song Xi meaningfully.

Song Xi was calm.

The emperor laughed and had his attendants to help him when he got out of the car.The servant of the Rong Mansion saw a stranger getting off Master Song's car. He was dressed in ordinary clothes and smiled kindly, so he hurriedly met him.Since they are Lord Song's guests, they are definitely not ordinary people, so they will naturally not neglect them.

The emperor twirled his beard and nodded, looked at Song Xi who came down with a smile, and said calmly, "Master Song, let's go."

Song Xi took the emperor straight to Rongxi Hall.

Mrs. Yin came to meet her in a hurry, and sent a message to the room by the way.

The curtain was opened, and there was a faint smell of medicine in the room.After the emperor followed Song Xi into the door, he thought that Jia She was really sick, and he had over-speculated before.Then there must be nothing interesting to watch today, but it is okay to visit his sick important minister to show the king's love for him.

After entering the back room, one could hear a maid reporting to Jia She, "Lord Song is here, and he brought another guest."

Jia Amnesty thought that Song Xi had brought Dr. Min here, so he quickly put down the book in his hand, lay down on the couch with his clothes on, and coughed hard twice.Then he turned his head weakly and looked at the person who entered the door, his face froze.

Song Xi dismissed the idlers in the house, and said to Jia She with a smile, "The emperor has come to visit you."

Jia Amnesty hurriedly got up.

The emperor hurriedly pressed his arm and told him not to be polite, then the emperor looked at Jia She carefully with a distressed face, and asked about his condition with a frown.

"Look at your pale face, but have you asked the imperial doctor to see what is the disease?"

Jia Amnesty: "My minister..."

"I can't find out, but it's not unusual for a strange person to get a strange disease." Song Xi sighed.

The emperor patted Jia Amnesty's arm with a heartbroken expression, sighing that heaven is jealous of talents.Immediately, he gave orders and rewarded Jia She with all kinds of precious medicinal materials, and even sent ten precious snow lotus flowers that are not suitable for concubines in the palace.

Jia She looked at Song Xi in surprise and blinked.

Song Xi said to Jia She lightly: "Why don't you thank me soon?"

Jia Amnesty was about to get up to thank him, but the emperor pushed him down again.

"Jia Aiqing dedicated herself to the country, overworked, and hurt her body. I give you medicine, and it's only right to show some sympathy." The emperor patted Jia She on the shoulder and told him to take good care of his illness. This is my farewell.

Song Xi asked Hengshu to stay with Jia She, while he continued to accompany the emperor.

The emperor finally went out of the palace once, so naturally he wouldn't go back so soon, so he walked around to have a look.The emperor went to the neighbor's house first, and was very satisfied with the literati reading and composing poems in the room.Instead, I went to see the sea, and by the way, I also selected two miscellaneous notes, which I planned to take back to the palace to read.The emperor stayed in the palace for a while, listening to a few literati commenting on state affairs and discussing "Secrets of Neighbors", and found it very interesting. Hearing their opinions and ideas were very decent, he was even more satisfied, and then left.

Afterwards, the emperor went to Xiayang Tower to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and asked Song Xi to take him to Chunfeng Tower, a famous brothel in the capital.The emperor was not interested in sleeping with the girl, he just listened to the sound of the piano, watched the singing and dancing, just curious to join in the fun.

When it was getting dark, the emperor returned to the palace reluctantly, sighing that he would have to go out of the palace often to 'understand the people's sentiments' in the future.

Song Xi turned back to Rongfu, and Jia Amnesty was reading a book with great interest.Even when he heard that Song Xi was coming, he didn't move, his eyes were fixed on the book.

Song Xi snatched the book.

"What are you doing?" Jia She reached out to get the book back, but Song Xi hid the book behind his back and refused to let Jia She take it.

"Why don't you let me read the book you gave me?"

"I asked Heng Shu to give you books to pass your time. Now that I'm here, the books are not very interesting." After Song Xi finished speaking, he threw the books on the ground and looked at Jia She with a haughty expression.

Jia She sneered, "You still dare to challenge me, you forgot what you did just now, I am not sick at all, but you say I am sick, this is bullying!"

"You're just sick and need me to treat you." Song Xi grabbed Jia She's hand, rubbing it and playing tricks, "Otherwise you can sue me, I'd rather die in your hands."

"Crazy." Jia She sighed, "But it's such a trivial matter, there's no need to lie to him."

Song Xi: "Snow lotus is very hot in nature, it can nourish lean and nourish yang."

Jia Amnesty calmed down, and then looked at Song Xi, "Don't tell me you just cheated on a few flowers, and do you need to invigorate your kidneys?"

"Need." Song Xi firmly grasped Jia Amnesty's hand and said with certainty.

Jia Amnesty: "..."

He answered so confidently that he couldn't say anything about him.It was the first time I saw a man who admitted so bluntly that he had kidney deficiency.

Song Xi unscrupulously pinched Jia She's face, "I was going to explain, but he refused to allow me to say more, so I did what he wanted. This snow lotus is very warming to the kidneys and strengthening the yang, and the body should be taken care of right now." , from now on, we will be able to spend every day in the spring and night, and be lingering until we grow old."

Song Xi stretched his hand into the bed as he spoke.

Jia Amnesty took a breath in shock, grabbed his hand, and told him not to mess around.

"After a while, Dr. Min will come to the door."

Song Xicai withdrew his hand, wanting to kill Dr. Min very much.

"Why do you have to make such a fuss?" Song Xi sighed.

"In that ruined temple, there are only Wei Daopo's things, and there is no doctor Min's antidote. I also asked someone to search his residence secretly, and there was nothing. I guess his things should be hidden in another place, and then I When I asked someone to monitor Dr. Min, I found that he had some contacts with the Dayang barbarians. I want to know if there are other things about him." Jia She said.

Song Xi frowned when he heard Jia She mention the Dayang barbarians, "This year the prince of the Zhenyan tribe personally brought people to Beijing to pay tribute and worship, and they will arrive in the capital in a short time. Dayang Khan said he sent the prince here The purpose is to apologize sincerely. The emperor does not doubt that there is a fake. Now that you have said that, they are suspicious. If the fake princess happens again, it will definitely make the emperor chew his teeth."

"I still don't know their purpose. Don't be preconceived. It may be because I think too much." Jia She said.

"Your 'overthinking' will usually be proven to be true later on." Song Xi instructed.

Jia Amnesty smiled.

"Master, Doctor Min is here."

Jia Amnesty asked Song Xi to let him help him.

Song Xi nodded.

Jia Amnesty immediately lowered the curtains, exposing only one arm for Dr. Min's pulse.

After Dr. Min entered the door, he bowed to Jia She and Song Xi, then bowed and sat on the side of the bed, feeling Jia She's pulse.

Song Xi glanced at Dr. Min boredly. He was about 30 years old, with a beard and ordinary appearance, without any special features.Song Xi turned his gaze elsewhere, and waited indifferently for Dr. Min to take his pulse.

"Lord Jia, this is an evil wind entering his body, and he has a strange disease. It can be cured even if you are sick, but the prescription uses two rare and hard-to-find things, which will waste some money." Dr. Min stood up and said to Song Xi respectfully after taking the pulse. .

Song Xi took another look at Dr. Min, no wonder Jia Amnesty suspected him before.This doctor is really a half-assed person, his pulse diagnosis is just for show, Jia She is obviously a healthy person, but he didn't diagnose it at all, and even said that evil wind entered the body.

"Regulation." Song Xi said.

Dr. Min saluted Song Xi respectfully, took the money, and sent the accompanying boy to fetch the medicine.Not long after, the boy came over with two packs of things, Dr. Min asked for a room, pretended to tinker in the room for a while, and then came out with a bowl of dark things.

Dr. Min planned to feed Jia Amnesty himself.The maid Dongsun hurriedly took it, expressing that their master doesn't like contact with strangers.

Dr. Min stood aside and watched, hesitantly said: "After taking this medicine, I will definitely not survive this night. I need to accompany me to check the situation in time."

Song Xi: "Doctor Min is still going with me. He doesn't like contact with outsiders, so why should we bother him? As for the things that need to be paid attention to when accompanying him, you can tell his maid."

Doctor Min didn't know why, but his heart trembled when he heard Mr. Song speak.At this moment, he wanted to refuse, but he took a peek at Master Song's cold and depressing face, and he couldn't say no.Then he nodded and told Dongsun: "The medicine is three-point poisonous. Mr. Jia's evil wind is very poisonous. It needs my strong medicine to restrain it. Later he will spit out a puddle of poisonous blood. This poisonous blood It is full of evil spirits, and it is easy to contaminate others, so don't touch it, sprinkle a jar of salt on the blood, wait for two sticks of incense, and then clean it up."

Winter bamboo shoots promise.

Dr. Min then followed Song Xi out of the mansion obediently, and Song Xi asked someone to get a carriage to take Dr. Min back.Dr. Min thanked him a thousand times before getting in the car.

Song Xi turned around and went back to Rong Mansion to see Jia Amnesty.

At this time, the room was already lively, Jia Amnesty was wearing a green shirt, sitting at the head of the table and looking at the three doctors in front of him.Doctor Nanjiang and Gao Boming and other two imperial doctors gathered around the table, studying the bowl of medicine that Doctor Min had given.Gao Boming took the silver needle and tried it in the medicine bowl, but it didn't turn black.

The Nanjiang doctor fanned the smell with his hands, then scooped out some with a spoon, brought it to his nose and smelled it carefully.

"Dipterocarp, benzoin, and snake gallbladder seem to be there, and they are indeed medicines for killing Gu worms."

"The medicine Wei Daopo gave last time, did you find out what it was?" Jia She asked.

"It has been planted on a piglet. It just went crazy last night, and now it is dying. I will kill the pig to get the blood later, and see what is inside." Doctor Nanjiang said.

"Then go quickly." Song Xi sent someone as soon as he entered the door.

The Nanjiang doctor waited to leave.

Not long after, the three of them turned back again, and at this time, the Nanjiang doctor had an extra white porcelain cup in his hand.

The Nanjiang doctor asked someone to bring a white porcelain plate, and then used a long-handled spoon to scoop up the blood from the porcelain cup and pour it into the plate.

Jia Amnesty and Song Xi leaned over to have a look, and saw that the blood was slowly smearing on the white porcelain plate, and we could see tiny dots moving in the blood. Although the 'dots' were mixed with blood, they were darker in color. The appearance of moving in the bloody water is like ripples on the surface of a calm lake.

It was the first time Jia Amnesty saw such a thing, and he observed it carefully for a long time.

Gao Boming and other imperial doctors also knew a thing or two about Gu poison, but they had never seen it with their own eyes. After seeing it, they all put on a look of surprise and pointed to the things on the plate, some couldn't believe it.

Doctor Nanjiang then used another spoon to scoop out some of Dr. Min's medicine and sprinkle it on the plate, and soon saw those moving crimson dots gathered together and escaped towards the edge of the plate.

"There is no doubt that the Gu poison is confirmed. One poison and one solution are exactly corresponding." Nanjiang doctor said.

Jia Amnesty asked Liu Xianglian to express everything that happened just now in words, and then asked Nanjiang doctor and Gao Boming and other imperial doctors to draw witnesses together.

After Jia Amnesty sent them away, he looked back at Song Xi, "Aren't you leaving?"

"Ask knowingly." Song Xi lay down on the Luohan couch indifferently, and asked Jia Amnesty to bring him a cup of tea.

Jia Amnesty really offered him a cup.

Song Xi didn't drink it, put the tea aside with a smile, hugged Jia She, and bit his ear affectionately.

"I haven't got the snow lotus yet, you still need to take care of your health." Jia She smiled and pushed him away, and immediately sent Song Xi to bed, so as not to make trouble on the couch of Arhat.

Song Xi smiled: "I understand, you dislike that the couch is too small for us to use."

"Are you the most beautiful man in the world, or the most shameless?" Jia She asked.

Song Xi: "I have both. After I have Snow Lotus, I may be number one in the world for a long time."

Jia She hadn't reacted yet, but now he realized the meaning of "permanent", his face turned hot, and he scolded him for being more and more unscrupulous.

Song Xi liked Jia She's like this, dragged him to bed quickly, and lowered the curtain.

……

The imperial palace, the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

After the emperor entered the palace, he saw that there were not only Prime Minister Wu, Minister of Rites and other ministers in the palace, but also Jia Amnesty.The emperor was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked Jia Amnesty how his condition was.

Jia She hastened to say that after taking the elixir bestowed by the Holy One yesterday, he instantly relieved the fever and relieved the cough, and recovered from his illness, all thanks to the great grace of the emperor.

The emperor laughed and lamented that Jia She was indeed a loyal minister, and he came to participate in politics as soon as he was ill.

Wu Cheng and other ministers hurriedly echoed the emperor and praised Jia Amnesty.

Then when they talked about state affairs, Jia Amnesty stood with his head half down and listened, as if he was an outsider.It wasn't until Prime Minister Wu discussed the matter of Prince Zhenyan's visit that he regained his energy and listened carefully.

After leaving the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Jia Amnesty went to Yushitai.

As soon as he arrived at Yushitai, Jia Amnesty heard Qin Zhonglu complain, saying that this year's newcomers are not easy to deal with, and they are a little bit desperate. They are secretly planning, looking for evidence, and want to join Song Xi.

"What newcomer?" Jia She asked.

After listening to Qin Zhonglu's careful explanation, Jia Shefang knew that during his absence, three new supervisory censors came to the Yushitai.

These three newcomers are all only 25 years old, but they are the three youngest among the second-class imperial examinations this year, and these three are all in the top [-] of the second-class.Leaving aside the child prodigies and geniuses who are rarely seen in a century, it can be said that their future is boundless if they are able to rank among the top two Jinshi at the young age of less than thirty.

However, it is precisely because these three newcomers are highly valued by the emperor that they have the aura of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, retaining the aura of "I am the best in terms of talents and virtues" and "I am an official to clean my body and help the world".

Qin Zhonglu continued: "These three little ancestors, since they arrived at the Yushitai, have often gathered together to mutter together, secretly counting Mr. Song's crimes. They also secretly investigated and listed all the news they found out about each other. Come out, and then see who checks which piece of news is cheaper, and each will divide the work to check, aiming to bring down the number one hypocrite and traitor in the court."

As soon as Qin Zhonglu finished speaking, Liang Leyun came in to report, and three newcomers, Lu Feibai, Wang Qiwen and Zhuang Quande, came to see him.

Qin Zhonglu glanced at Jia She, shut his mouth tightly, and sat quietly on the bottom left of Jia She, without saying a word.

Lu Feibai, Wang Qiwen and Zhuang Quande immediately entered the door and paid respects to Jia Amnesty.

Jia She glanced at the three of them, and asked them directly if they would like to play Song Xi.Qin Zhonglu who was on the side almost spit out the tea he just drank when he heard Jia She's straightforward question.

Lu Feibai turned his eyes and made eye contact with Wang Qiwen and Zhuang Quande.Lu Feibai immediately bowed his hands and said yes to Jia Amnesty sonorously.

Jia Amnesty turned his eyes to look at Lu Feibai. He was a dignified and refined man, with haughty brows and eyes, even bowing to salute himself, his face was obviously a bit dissatisfied.

Jia Amnesty didn't pay attention to Lu Feibai. Instead, he tilted his head as if chatting casually, and asked Qin Zhonglu, "What's his family background?"

"My lord, the third son of Luliang, the magistrate of Yangzhou."

"Do you have any relatives in the capital?" Jia She turned to look at Lu Feibai.

Lu Feibai froze for a moment, then shook his head in embarrassment. He felt that Jia She had ignored his own ability by asking about his family background, and it was a kind of humiliation!

Jia Amnesty turned to ask the other two, they were also the sons of minor officials and country gentry outside Beijing, and their situation was worse than that of Lu Feibai.

"Then who taught you to be so bold and reckless, to dare to join the powerful ministers of this dynasty as a scholar of the Martial Arts Hall as soon as you enter the gate of Yushitai?"

Lu Feibai looked upright and wanted to open his mouth indignantly, but Jia Amnesty interrupted him immediately.

"Don't tell me about your lofty and righteous ambitions. It has nothing to do with me. It's your business to want to die, but you can't dirty the reputation of our Yushitai." Jia She glanced at these people sharply, " Our Yushitai can't afford fools like you."

Lu Feibai: "My lord, how can you humiliate us with such words. As the supervisory censor, we should be responsible..."

"Get lost!" Jia She said softly.

Lu Fei looked at Jia Amnesty blankly, he never expected that Doctor Yu Shi would speak so rudely, how could he talk to them like this?According to the rules, the doctor censor can only make suggestions, and has no right to stop them who are the supervisory censors.

After Lu Feibai and others left Jia She's house, they were very ashamed and angry, feeling that they had been severely humiliated by Jia She, and couldn't swallow this breath.

"He is interfering with our participation, and he is overstepping the rules!" Lu Fei said angrily.

Wang Qiwen and Zhuang Quande agreed, and showed no less anger than Lu Feibai.

"How can this be done, the majestic imperial censor, ignoring Chao Gang, and speaking so rudely to us innocent censors."

Lu Feibai immediately suggested that the three of them join the Ben Jia Amnesty, and then reported him bullying the newcomer and interfering with the imperial censor to join the Ben, and asked the emperor to make a clear decision.This idea was quickly approved by Wang Qiwen and Zhuang Quande.All three of them felt that they were doing the right thing, and they also said that they would show the strength of "Secrets of the Neighbor" and speak based on facts, and they would definitely get approval.

The three young men were full of energy and fearless, they really wrote the memorial and handed it up.

Song Xi already knew that there were three stunned youths on Yushitai who were staring at him.Therefore, when the memorial to Jia Amnesty from these three people was handed over to the Wuying Hall, Song Xi immediately approved it, and asked people to hand over the memorial to the emperor without delay.

When the emperor saw such a memorial, he sneered and threw it on the ground.

In a short time, a eunuch came to Yushitai to pass on the emperor's oral order, and directly reprimanded Lu Feibai and the other three to serve as county magistrates in three counties outside Beijing.

In the blink of an eye, he changed from a fourth-rank supervisory censor to a seventh-rank county magistrate. After the three of them thanked and received the decree, they felt unwilling, and couldn't figure out where they were wrong.I just feel that they failed in the matter of not being able to flatter the rich and powerful, and the three of them walked straight away feeling wronged and unwilling.

Liang Leyun saw that they left in despair after a few days of prosperity, and couldn't help but think of his former self.Pity they are still stubborn and confused!There is no such thing as noble ambition in their behavior, it is clearly self-righteous and self-willed.Such people stay in Yushitai because they are too arrogant and subjective, so they are really not suitable to be the Yushi who supervises all officials.

"However, it's strange. This time, the emperor was very straightforward. He didn't even ask questions, and he didn't even check. He just sent the three of them away. Why?" Liang Leyun and Qin Zhonglu sighed in bewilderment. .

"Your Majesty just lamented and praised Mr. Jia for his loyalty to the country this morning, and then these three stunned youths tore down the stage. Who do you think the Emperor will believe?"

Liang Leyun nodded, bowed to Qin Zhonglu to thank him, and then asked him to explain his doubts, "My lord is like this, isn't it just using power to bully newcomers?"

Qin Zhonglu: "Why, just allow them newcomers to bully the old people, and we old people are not allowed to resist? Besides, Mr. Jia only taught them the morality of being an official and a person, but he didn't interfere with the supervisory history. Can they succeed? Sending the notebook to the emperor's watch without hesitation proves that what they participated in is not true."

Qin Zhonglu also felt that if these three stunned youths participated in the performance of Mr. Jia, it might be better to say that Mr. Jia might not spread any anger, and let them make troubles on their own.They just wanted to deal with Mr. Song.Mr. Song is the most important person to Mr. Jia, and they deserved to be demoted from Yushitai immediately.

In the afternoon, Jia Amnesty met with the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and asked for the list of candidates who were missing in the imperial examination this year, and planned to select three more candidates to enter Yushitai.But this time, they will not be specially promoted to be fourth-rank supervisory censors. We will start from the seventh-rank sesame officials, and let them learn their skills in a down-to-earth manner.

Jia Amnesty also used the news network to inquire about the virtues of the candidates.

The next day, Zhen's family sent greetings to Jiamu.

Jia Mu thought about the past friendship between the two families, and after thinking about it, she agreed to meet.

Mrs. Tang, the eldest wife of the Zhen family, brought her son Zhen Ke, who was missing in Beijing, to visit Jia's mother.

Jia's mother liked the Jade Guanyin gifted by the Tang family very much, so she put aside the grudges about the Zhen family plotting Rongfu to help their son find an official.Thinking about the close relationship between the two families, there were occasional small conflicts in the past, so don't worry about it.

"This jade is not worth a lot of money. The most rare thing is that it was carved by the eminent monk himself, and after eight years of worship and chanting, it is very effective and can keep the family safe." Tang said.

Jia's mother knew that the Tang family was modest, so the quality of this jade was good at first glance, and it was such a big piece, it must be worth a lot of money.However, their Rong Mansion does not lack these valuable gadgets, what is rare is the Buddha's aura carried by this thing itself.Then Jia Mu agreed with a smile, and sighed that Tang was bothering.

Instead, Tang took her son, Zhen Ke, and asked him to have a good time with Jia's mother.

Zhen Ke is about the same age as Jia Lian, and has been dating in her twenties. Not only is she as handsome as Jia Lian, but she even has similar facial features.

When Jia's mother saw him for the first time, she thought Jia Lian was back.But this child looks more refined and honest than Jia Lian, and he doesn't seem to be very flattering with his mouth. After asking the gift in an An'an manner, he stood dutifully behind her mother, with her head half lowered and her eyes fixed on her. , dare not make any mistakes.

Mother Jia liked this child quite a bit, but when she heard Tang mention that Zhen Ke was still in Hou Que, her heart sank.

Tang: "I heard that Yushitai has just expelled three new Jinshi recently, and plans to select three more candidates from the candidates who won the imperial examination this time as replacements?"

Mother Jia is now even more certain that the purpose of Tang's visit here is to find her because of her son's job seeking an official.

There are still such shameless people in this world. The matter of repaying the money made them laugh and cry before. This time they dare to come to the door to mention it. It is really shameless.

Jia's mother immediately changed the conversation and said to Tang: "This Jade Guanyin is very good, but I already have one, and asking for another one seems half-hearted and insincere. I appreciate your kindness, but this It is not suitable for me to take things anymore. It would be best for you to keep them to pray for your son’s career success. I like the dim sum made by the chef of Zhen’s family. It’s called Man Xin Crisp. I’ll be grateful if you send me some. .”

When Tang heard what Jia Mu said, she understood what Jia Mu meant.He agreed with a smile on his mouth, and sighed in his heart that Jia Mu had such a high wrist, and calmly refused the heavy gift, without smearing her face, and asked for some cheap snacks for her to go down the steps.Tang thought he had a clever mouth, but he couldn't compete with such a mother of Jia, so he muddled around for a while, and took his son to leave.

As soon as Jia Mu came back, Jia Mu hurriedly informed Jia Amnesty of the matter.

Jia's mother evaluated Zhen Ke objectively, but she didn't like to see Tang's too calculating and full of eyes all over his body.

"Zhen Ke is really simple and honest, she is a good child, but her mother, according to what you said, will definitely hold her back in the future." Jia Amnesty said immediately, "But even if his mother is kind, I can't help it." He will not be selected. The list of Jinshi has not yet been arranged, and it is not yet the turn of Juren."

Jia's mother promised to reassure Jia Amnesty immediately, and with her in charge of the back house, she would never let those with evil intentions outside have the opportunity to go through the back door of Rong Mansion.

Jia amnesty thanked Jia's mother, and then went back to her room to do her own business.

Early the next morning, as usual, Jia She asked Dr. Min if he had any news.

Zhu Mao shook his head, "Since taking the money back from the Rong Mansion that day, he has been hiding in his mansion just like before, without going out the door. But the real face businessman came to him twice, each time he went empty-handed , returned empty-handed, but a little sneaky."

Jia Amnesty: "He didn't send anyone to find Wei Daopo either?"

"No."

Jia Amnesty asked Wei Daopo again if there was any movement in Qingfeng Temple.

Zhu Mao said no, there are only two little girls in the Taoist temple, and they usually obey Wei Daopo. Wei Daopo often goes out for ten days and a half months without returning, and they are both used to it, so Wei Daopo has not appeared for such a long time this time, They don't think so either.

Jia Amnesty immediately went to Gyeonggi Prefecture, and happened to meet Xue Pan being escorted to the palace.

When Jia Amnesty saw Xue Pan's eyes were black and blue, and the corners of his mouth were red and swollen with injuries, he knew who this guy had fought with and was arrested by the yamen.

Seeing Jia Amnesty, Xue Pan excitedly called his uncle.

Jia Amnesty smiled: "You call me that to embarrass me?"

Xue Pan was stunned for a moment before realizing that Elder Xi was making fun of himself for embarrassing him, and that he was also stupid to marry in front of everyone on such an occasion.Xue Pan lowered his head in guilt, and dared not speak anymore.

Jia Amnesty sent the people in the yamen to do business, so he turned to look for Liu Zhizhong.Liu Zhizhong had already known that Mr. Jia was coming, so he hurriedly packed up the case file for interrogating Wei Daopo, then opened the window, and hurriedly asked his subordinates to send the case file to Mr. Song in the Hall of Martial Arts.

Liu Zhizhong then pretended to be nonchalant and came to receive Jia Amnesty.

When Jia Amnesty asked to see Wei Daopo's case file, Liu Zhizhong immediately said: "Unfortunately, I just asked someone to send it to our Master Song. If you don't want to be an official, then send someone to ask, do you want to come back?"

"No need." Jia Amnesty looked away from Liu Zhizhong's face, and asked Liu Zhizhong what Dao Po Wei had told Dr. Min.

Liu Zhizhong shook his head.

Jia Amnesty said goodbye.

Liu Zhizhong hurriedly followed, smiling and persuading Jia She to go find them, Mr. Song.

Jia Amnesty laughed and asked Liu Zhizhong to stop, then he stopped after taking a few steps, turned around and asked Liu Zhizhong what happened to Xue Pan.Liu Zhizhong then told about the fight between Xue Pan and the son of the servant of the Ministry of Rites.

"Put him together with Wei Daopo."

Liu Zhizhong was stunned, "Is this appropriate?" Male and female prisoners have always lived separately.

"Just find an excuse, it's nonsense."

Jia Amnesty gave up his orders and went to see Xue Pan.Jia Amnesty gave Xue Pan a chance to get out of prison as soon as possible, and asked him to try his best to defend Dao Po's words.

A young, foolish and reckless person like Xue Pan should not arouse the vigilance of Wei Daopo.

Xue Pan was stunned when he saw that Mr. She was merciless and didn't say a word for himself, so he was very disappointed, even a little desperate.Seeing Elder She come back now and give himself a chance, his eyes lit up as soon as he heard it, and he hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Xue Pan then locked Xue Pan and Wei Daopo together because of the prison head's sentence "there are too many people in the prison and there is no place for them", and then put a wooden screen in it to block it.

Wei Daopo was not used to being in prison with a man at first, but when she saw that Xue Pan was just a silly young man who knew how to find a fight, she was quite delicate and attractive, so Wei Daopo didn't have so much resistance.
